The Hacker's Underground Handbook: Learn how to hack and what it takes to crack even the most secure systems!

Customer Reviews:

extremely basic

By Ari Elias Bachrach - April 19, 2010

I've been in the information security field for most of my professional life, so I know what to expect from most hacking books - a lot of coverage of a variety of topics and not a ton of depth because there just isn't room. This book though is one of the worst I've seen. The treatment of it's topics are so basic it could have been written by the average teenage "hacker". The material is also hopelessly dated and full of holes.

Save your money

By Jacob P. Hammack "hammackj" - March 23, 2011

This book shouldn't have even been published the content is so basic. It is like the author went to some script kiddie web site and copied/pasted the content. Dont buy it.

A good book for someone with no idea where to start

By Connor Cuickshank - December 25, 2012

I wasn't expecting this book to be as thin as it was but I finished it in about a day, it gives you a pretty good insight into what a hacker is really thinking and I find that fascinating since I aim to have a career as a pen tester after college. This book is worth a read but most of the information you could find out on the internet. It's a good book but unless you really don't have a clue what you're looking for, I wouldn't suggest getting this book.
